“Huge boost” – Presenter reacts as Wolves could be set for great news over in-form star

Wolverhampton Wanderers could be on the verge of a major breakthrough thanks to Hwang Hee-chan. Wolverhampton Wanderers are about to receive a ‘huge boost’ as Hwang Hee-chan approaches a new contract at Molineux, and Talking Wolves presenter Dave Azzopardi has explained why it might be a vital agreement on and off the field.The South Korean international has played an important role in the West Midlands club’s positive start to the season, despite the fact that the club was rocked by the news that Julen Lopetegui had chosen to leave the dugout just days before the season began, leaving Gary O’Neil in charge. Hwang’s strong performances have also aided Wolves’ recovery from the summer transfer window, which saw Ruben Neves cash in on the riches on offer in Saudi Arabia by joining Al-Hilal for £47 million.

Wanderers making progress in Hwang talks

According to The Athletic, Wolves are making headway in their efforts to tie down Hwang to a new deal, and there is confidence that he is eager to extend his time at Molineux after being in line for a reward due to a great vein of form.

According to the source, the winger, who has seven goals and two assists in 13 appearances this season, is loving working under O’Neil’s tutelage and can be anticipated to put pen to paper if his current employers put fair terms on the table.

 

How Wolves can benefit from Hwang Hee-chan's rise - The Athletic

 

Wolves want Hwang to sign a new contract despite the fact that he has more than two and a half years left on his £30,000-per-week deal, since he has become one of the first names on the team sheet thanks to his exploits in the last third of the pitch.

Sunday People chief sports writer Neil Moxley recently told GIVEMESPORT that it would be a mistake for Wanderers to sell the 27-year-old now that he has begun to shine in the Premier League, with him likely to remain an important piece in O’Neill’s plans.

Leeds United made a £17 million bid for Wolves while they were still in the Premier League during the January transfer window earlier this year. However, the move to Elland Road didn’t materialize, and Wolves’ decision not to accept the offer ultimately proved beneficial.

O’Neil expressed his hope that ongoing discussions between Hwang and his representatives will yield a positive outcome. He highlighted Hwang’s exceptional form, describing it as ‘incredible’ since the change in leadership at Molineux.

Initially arriving at Wolves on loan from RB Leipzig in the summer of 2021, Hwang’s loan deal was later converted into a permanent transfer for a fee of £14 million. His impact was notable in the early stages, but his peak performance has been seen more recently.

Dave Azzopardi update – Hwang Hee-chan

After recovering from a period in which he was less prolific in front of goal, Azzopardi believes that locking Hwang down to new terms would be a move in the right direction as Wolves look to continue making progress under O’Neil’s supervision. The presenter believes that securing an agreement with the ex-RB Salzburg talisman will allow Wanderers to flourish off the field, as he will play a key role in aiming to grow the following.

When asked what it would mean if Hwang committed to Wolves for the long term, Azzopardi told GIVEMESPORT:

“I believe it would greatly benefit the team. He initially struggled when he joined Wolves, showing promise in his first season but then having quieter subsequent seasons. However, currently, he’s displaying exceptional skill around the box and is scoring goals consistently, which could significantly uplift the team.

This impact extends beyond the pitch. Wolves have expressed their desire to expand their fanbase and market the club. Hwang Hee-chan’s presence, drawing not just from his footballing abilities but also his appeal to fans, especially from South Korea as seen during the match against Tottenham alongside Heung-min Son, adds a lot to the club.

Overall, this potential development seems promising for everyone involved. It appears Hwang is eager to finalize things, and if it happens, it’ll be a positive boost, hopefully before Christmas, for a player performing admirably.”
